Book: The Midnight Library

It is one of the books that blown my mind. It's very well written and would probably relate with a lot of people who are in their journey to find themselves.  So many people are talking about it but I did not buy it until a few months ago where I read the preview on the first pages. Easy for me to see if I want to buy the book or not. When the first pages hook me right away, I don't need to think twice. This book is one of them.  This contains spoiler of course.  Nora, the main character, like many of us, fall into depression and decided to kill herself. But she's not dead right away. She went into a kind of limbo between life and death. In that library she met a librarian, this librarian is a kind of a guide. Our guide that probably tasked when we were born.    The librarian shows her lives that she could have had if she wants to. She is so depressed and thinks that no life will makes her happy enough to live it. I can totally understand her state. I was there....

Wedding exibition

Last month, me and another Prisca were so stress because of job. And we decided to go to mall to eat pentol gila *spicy meetball*. We both talked about many things, this and that, also ate our pentol gila. Done with pentol gila, we didnt know what to do, just walk around then looked at something downstair. There were wedding exibition and what we did?? Screaming and said "LETS GO THERE! LOOK AT WEDDING DRESS AND STUFF!!!! LETS GO!".

People who wants to get married always react like that, for sure.

Well the exibition offered wedding dress like kebaya. Mostly kebaya, but I didnt see something good. I found something interest like price of photo booth, catering and wedding ring. We stopped for a long time in wedding ring booth. Looking for a nice simple wedding ring.

Asked the owner and I want to have Palladium one for my wedding ring because a man couldnt wear the gold one. But then she recomended to get the gold one for me, and palladium for husband. The price is the same between white gold and palladium. She also recomend to buy it around may-june. Because can get the cheaper price than now.

There were a lot of nice wedding ring. But I found one look nice and simpler, also not so big. So I think it would be nice to wear.

The owner also asked when I plan to get married. Both Prisca said "InshaAllah this year" haha. And ohh marketing style, she said "ohh I really hope you both could get married soon, and dont forget to visit our showroom and get a nice couple ring there ya.. see you soon there!". Nah lho

If you wanna get the cheaper price of gold, you can go get them on May-June. Its not only recomended for couple who want to get the ring, but also best time for people who want to invest some money in buying gold. Then you can sell it later on month like January-Feb *because I found this price of gold expensive this month*.  And Oh for you who are muslim, since your future husband couldnt wear the gold one, you can get him the Palladium one. It has the same price but different price whn you sell it later. Ahh you wouldnt sell your wedding ring right?

Wedding exibition will always be so important for people to get reference for their wedding. I dont know when I will get married, just.. look for wedding references also nice thing to do to release all stress from work.

Have a nice day :)

Pengalaman Bikin (Free) Schengen Visa di VFS Swiss

I know this is so normal but anyway I like to compare the experiences because people might have different cases and because I have nothing to lose so... here's my experience for applying Schengen Visa via Swiss (VFS). Kenapa nggak via Belanda? Karena rencana kita berkunjung lamanya ke Geneve - Swiss (ada urusan kerjaan suami gw) dan kami belum tau akan ke Belanda apa nggak saat itu (nggak jadi sih soalnya mepet banget).  Seperti yang sudah sering dibahas orang lain perihal syarat dan ketentuan apply Schengen visa, gw nggak akan nulis itu ya. Udah ada di website VFS, lengkap. Gw cuma tambahin dikit-dikit aja infonya yang mungkin sama seperti kasus yang baca kalo emang kebetulan sama sih 😂 "Ok jadi total pembayarannya 280 ribu rupiah ya" "HAH?? Cuma 200an mbak??? Visanya gratis???" "Suaminya masih WN Belanda kan mbak?" "Iya" "Oiya itu gratis, bisa pake visa tipe C. Jadi cuma bayar biaya admin aja" ...

Not A Robot

  There are so many things I did recently. It was all started since February. Not to complain about this, I just want to write it to release the stress. Because I know every choices has its own risks. Started from January, I commits to work on another blog of mine. Joining with another friend, we are committed to post at least one writing every week with different theme each week. This is still under construction *ahem, ini bukan bangunan* to make it good to read at. I will publish it here once it is ready to be published. We both are trying to be consistent. So far, I have been consistent and always post one every week. After decided to get married, I realize that it won't be that easy. No matter what, marrying someone never be easy. About the preparation and this and that. To be honest, I will not having a big feast for that. I will invite my close friends and family, although I still have to respect what my parents want to invite the neighbors (one block neighbors are tota...

[Book] Dunia Cecilia

'apakah kalian membicarakan hal semacam itu di surga?' 'tapi kami berusaha tidak membicarakannya dekat-dekat Tuhan. ia sangat sensitif terhadap kritik' Yap, sepenggal dialog antara Cecilia dan malaikat Ariel. Saya mengenal Jostein Gaarder sejak kuliah. Ehhhh 'mengenal' dalam artian kenal bukunya ya, kalo bisa kenal pribadi mah bisa seneng jingkrak-jingkrak hehehe. Jadi karena teman saya mendapat tugas kuliah membaca satu novel filsafat berjudul Dunia Sophie, saya jadi sedikit mengetahui si bapak Gaarder ini. Enak ya tugasnya anak sastra baca novel, tugas anak matematika ya baca sih, tapi pembuktian kalkulus -_- Dunia Cecilia ini buku pertama Jostein Gaarder yang saya baca, karena buku Dunia Shopie sangatlah berat berdasar review teman saya. Saya sih nggak perlu baca buku itu karena teman saya sudah benar-benar mahir bercerita. Jadilah saya sudah paham bener cerita Dunia Sophie tanpa membacanya. Novel ini atas rekomendasi teman saya, dia bilang kala...
